Reekwater Docks

The seawind feels refreshing as you push your way through the large mass of people on the streets. It carries the smell of the ocean, tar, and cloth, and at least attempts to drive out the overwhelming smell of sweat. Dockworkers carrying cargo, sailors just arrived in port, rough-looking locals, and the rare lost traveler are among the ever-changing sea of people. The streets are lined with warehouses, shops, taverns, and inns made out of whatever material available, ranging from stone to driftwood to repurposed beached ships. Crudely build docks stand beyond the Floodpath, with many a ship docked to them.

The Reekwater Docks are located in the south-east of Hightide, and are the second main docks of Wittering. Those unable to pay the docking and stalling fees of the Old Docks often opt to dock here instead. The docks are not as well maintained, but function effectively. Whilst the fees are lower officially, it might be a costly mistake to not make a donation to the right people when docking here. Such a donation could also potentially get you into the city without registering.
